Griffin, a professor at Clarement Graduate School in California, has written a nuanced, well-documented summary of many of the questions surrounding 9/11. An ethicist, he carefully distinguishes between several levels of culpability as regards the main events of that day, namely, each of the two towers, the Pentagon and the craft downed in the Pennsylvania field. Too often, authors dealing with 9/11 have lumped everything together, proof of governmental lies (and there have been many) in one i...more

Conspiracy book about 9/11. Goes through a range of shady facts about 9/11 - lots of engineering-speak about how hot the WTC would have to be in order to collapse. Lots of "controlled demolition" talk.

A must read. With all the evidence, this guy proves that there is no way so many operational errors and coincidences could have merged to create the tragedy of 9/11. The Bush administration was complicit. The question remains to what degree. The chapters about the explosions in the towers, the superheated concrete dust (that is now killing the volunteer workers), the US Airways stock, the stand-down orders for scrambling jets, and the Star Wars totally blew my mind. What greedy motherfuckers.

"Distrubing questions about the Bush Admin. and 9/11"
I knew by 6:00 PM 9/11/01 that the whole thing did not add up to what the governement was telling the public. There were 4 things that I saw on 9/11 that made me realize that the government was lieing and Bush/Cheney were probably behind the whole thing.

Americans
I won't get into the debate here, but this is definitely worth a read just for the fact that no one should blindly accept what happens in the world. If anything, you should be asking questions of the government (always a good thing) and see events in the world through more skeptical eyes.

A must read. Enough said.
Ok, let me add this...check out the film, Loose Change, as a good visual to go along with this critical look at 9/11. Never forget and never give up finding TRUTH.

Very well written so you know its not some typical conspiracy theory. I would recommend this to everyone. I'd like to offer it a summer reading to students some day.

Scholarly and well-researched book that offers alternative theories on what may have happened on 9/11..
